Diablo 3 was insane!

How likely is it approx. for a Balance to drop? The run looked so insanely lucky dropwise, but it was executed and coordinated extraordinarily well. Really wish there were more coop-speedruns, it's quite entertaining.

I can watch this year while I work from home so I’m catching so much more, really enjoying this AGDQ.

I had to miss his run due to the time slot but I'm excited to see the VOD.

Golden Sun was great to watch, commentary was super good and helped at least me to understand a lot of the nuance behind the stuff happening!

From this morning's runs I'd definitely recommend the Epic Dumpster Bear 2 race and the current Mr Bones run, these are some precious jewels of video games to say the least :D

Yeah the golden sun run was fun, didn't know about the elemental weaknesses hint despite probably upwards of 200 hours in both games and felt like an idiot xD

Commentary was also neat, Plexa was one of the few casters that reacted to messages not just from his circle of GS friends, the afterwords were nice and the couch was fun.

MP was less out of bounds than the last MP run I saw, would guess that upwards of 60% of the run was in bounds if you count the little invisible rocks within rooms. That moment in pirate labs was spicy.

That Mario Land 2 race was intense.

Really looking forward to FF7-PC later today. I've seen parts of the PC port run before, and it's just wild how much went in to figuring out the disc-swap manipulations in it.

Enjoyed the Golden Sun run as well....at the moment I have to say the Medievil run is definitely making me feel old but enjoying how the caster is talking the audience through his run.

Looks like I'll be hitting more vods by the looks of it...

I don't know the game really, but isn't this kind of a roundabout way to compete in Mario 35? why not get them all in the same lobby?

kosmic still has 15 players alive in his lobby? compared to 3, 3, and 2? isn't that like really unlucky to get much better opponents lol, I wonder if it would ever be worthwhile to leave a game early because the opponents are unusually good

does this game have skill based matchmaking? I doubt it cause that would make this really unfair, you could just tank your MMR before the match?

wait they're gonna do this for an hour and a half and just compare kill counts and lobby victories at the end? why is a KO worth more points (1) compared to a 2nd or 3rd place? (0 points)
